...I did not do too well. I first show up to a parking lot full of 240sx/sylvias and like 1985 corolla's. they inspection guy says "an S2000, this is a first" I ran on my stock 16's with never used s02's, not my 18" bling blings. There were two corses, one was a constant right sweeper, then snap into a left and back about 6 times. I stayed in 1st the whole time to get wheel spin 6.5-9k. I was having a tough time but got it a little at the end of the session.

The second corse was longer and faster between 1st and 2nd gears. All in all it was a blast, but it would have been easier with a stretched rear tire set up, but I wanted to test the limits and the responce as if I were on the street. It was a great learning experience and worth the $80.00 to get in. I was put on by Club 4AG at Irwindale speedway in CA.

No flames about the s2 not being a drift car bla bla bla. this is my drift car, my drag car, my track car and my daily commuter, and I want to know how it handles in every situation, not buy a car for each situation.

Cool! Sounds like fun! Gotta love a multi-task car!

 

good practice for how far you can take your car before losing it

 

<flame, flame, flame, blah blah blah>

Ok, got that out of the way. No seriously, I think it's cool you went to a driving event. I would the think the S2000 would be a bit difficult on the drift circuits. you should have swapped your rims/tires front to back to the rear end would break loose easier. I'm not positive that is possible w/ the offsets, but if it worked it would make drifting the car MUCh easier.

 

Drifting is a lot of fun if you know what you are doing........

 

I had my first drift experience in an underground garage. So easy and really fun too. Oh and I didn't even hit any parked cars or pillars

 

There is one thats' happening here in vegas but since my s02s are also my autocross tires for now I won't be doing it as I need these tires but I will defiantly do one in the future

Only one way to learn Vtechs2000, but perhaps I am taking your comment the wrong way, please clarify your statement.......

I have been to Nascar training, go kart training, snow training, and a few days under my belt on tracks. I'm not saying I'm fast or even good at all, but most drivers think they are better drivers than they actually are!!!!

get some hard rubber for rears

 

I will next time perhaps, but I wanted to do it to feel how it would on the street, you know, with out cheating.

(He said hard rubber )
